    A Closer Look At: Calcium & Magnesium.

    Gah. so much wrong. for one thing, black people have higher rates of some diseases, probably because getting enough vitamin D in a office in pennsylvania with skin optimised for the equator isn't going to happen. in fact most people have insufficient vitamin D. and calcium levels are regulated...

    EGCG (topical) stimulates hair growth study.

    black tea is affected by the pH of your water. red to dark brown or so. sort of similar to cocoa. lots of flavonoids do this. i think brown green tea is just from buying junk though. get good loose leaf from an asian food store or tea shop.
